We Wrote the Book on Corporate Team Building®

Perfect weather, beautiful beaches, and meticulously maintained parks are only a few of the reasons why San Diego is a wildly popular business travel destination for corporate groups. Companies can find industry-leading team building activities in San Diego offered by Best Corporate Events for their corporate meetings.

Get your group together and choose from charitable, professional development, culinary programs, and more. Our CSR programs help your team to contribute to the greater good by helping those in need through team building activities like We Care for Schools and Bears & Blankets programs. Take your group’s energy to the next level with an Igniting Team Performance™ event.

If your group wants to explore the city, then we will provide iPad® devices for a high-tech team building activity like City SmartHunt®, allowing your team to collectively explore areas like Balboa Park or the San Diego Zoo. We also offer a high-energy Amazing Chase SmartHunt® to forge deeper bonds between your team members with a unique, memorable experience. One of our most successful large corporate events in San Diego was an Urban Hunt for 850 people starting at the famous Midway Art Walk.

Any of our diverse live programs can be delivered fully face-to-face with health and safety measures in place. Many can also be delivered in a hybrid format if some of your group will be together and others will be joining remotely.

Not able to gather in person? Our Virtual Team Building and Virtual Training programs can provide your group with a fulfilling and engaging experience remotely – anytime, anywhere, worldwide!

Popular Team Building Activities in San Diego

While we can deliver any of our professional development, SmartHunts, or team building activities in San Diego, here’s a quick list of our 10 most popular programs in the Bay Area.

Our signature program has been enjoyed for many years by groups large and small. This top selling event continues to resonate with participants as they recall the joy of receiving their first bike. Our exclusive iPad app incorporates engaging audio/video clues and fun challenges so teams can earn the necessary parts to assemble bikes for needy children. Photos and videos of your participants in action will be captured in our app for you to access after the event.
In this collaborative event, teams work together to build an actual bridge that has the strength to support the weight of the entire group. There are two amazing aspects of this project. Each section of the bridge will be an independent artistic representation of your future mission and goals AND the principal building materials of the structure are cardboard and duct tape!
This high-energy event will bring out your group’s competitive spirit as they work together to design, build and race their very own “seaworthy” vessel! Once their initial rafts are built, it’s literally sink or swim as each team takes to the water to test their craft in an effort to identify possible design flaws before the races begin! When the heats start, the excitement mounts—which crew will take home the gold? This dynamic team challenge will test each participant’s problem solving skills and creativity.
A CSR program that will touch your heart, Build-a-Wheelchair® is a fun, worthwhile event that benefits the growing population of persons with mobility challenges. Beginning with various iPads® activities to earn the needed materials, teams will then assemble, safety test and decorate new wheelchairs for donation. When possible, a representative from the selected charity will arrive to accept and thank the group for their donations.
Fiesta Fun! is a delicious and exciting recipe contest where your teams will combine creativity with culinary skill to make their own brand of Salsa, Guacamole and Golden Margaritas! Experience the sights, sounds and flavor of Mexico with the beat of Mexican music setting the stage for this gastronomical team builder. Once the creations are finished, it’s on to the judges table to see who will win the medal for best taste, creativity and presentation.
Indoor and Outdoor versions! This set of fun and engaging team building games combines high-energy competition with basic athletic ability, allowing for full and active participation. Set to music that will pump up the excitement, groups warm-up, and teams are formed and assigned a color for easy identification. Next, your very own VIP will take the opening lap around the playing field and the games begin. Your group will have a blast as they compete to stand on the winner’s podium.
Emphasizing creativity, delegation and teamwork, Tapas and Sangria is a program with a lot of punch. Your group will be formed into “wineries” tasked to develop, make and market their own brand of Sangria. Each winery will also make tapas from cold ingredients – no recipes provided! The event will close with a tasting contest and awards presentation for Best Tasting Tapas, Best Sangria and Best Marketing Campaign.
Teams will engage in fun, challenging team building activities leading to the assembly of care packages for a chosen charity. This is an extraordinary way to build team spirit & infuse your group with positive energy and goodwill. Examples of charities include homeless shelters, food banks, hospices, animal shelters, nursing homes, and other community and social service agencies. A representative from the charity may surprise your group, speaking passionately about the organization and their mission.
This event will give your group a deep sense of patriotism as it works together to prepare care packages for people currently serving in the military. Teams will first engage in various point-based activities including trivia, puzzles and other problem-solving scenarios delivered on iPads. The care packages are then assembled and decorated for donation to service men and women and their families.
City SmartHunt® is the ultimate technology-driven scavenger hunt. Your group will experience the interactive features of our SmartHunts app on Apple® iPads® that utilize text messaging, audio, video, FaceTime®, social media, QR codes, and GPS with built-in mapping to produce the coolest hunts ever! SmartHunts® have two-way messaging so teams are connected with the SmartHunts Master who tracks them using GPS and monitors photos and scoring from the teams during the hunt.

        What is a Keynote Speaker?

        Keynote Speaker is an often-misunderstood term associated with simply a motivational speaker, breakout speaker, industry expert, etc. Most professional speakers are not actual trained Keynote Speakers, who are specialists, therefore in much lower supply, and in higher demand.

        Keynote Speakers are experienced, professional communicators who engage an audience, capturing the essence of a client’s meeting. They are able to highlight it to their audience while simultaneously delivering their own key concepts and proprietary content in an entertaining and impactful way. Most companies understand that this specialization is very much worth the time (around an hour) and the investment.

        In order to capture the perfect essence, a Keynote Speaker spends the necessary time researching a client’s industry, their issues, and their audience to craft a customized presentation into a unique and distinctive moment specifically for the client’s event.

        As a top Keynote Speaker, Tom Leu strategically uses compelling storytelling, humor, powerful visuals, audio and video clips, and audience participation elements to weave an impactful message into your event in a fun and memorable way. Tom can also pair his Keynote with Best Corporate Events programming, laying a foundation and setting a tone that best prepares participants for maximum engagement in the forthcoming team events that day.
